Ben Simmons' Lack of Development Is Hard to Process: Unchecked

Related Topics: Ben Simmons, Atlanta, Joel Embiid

We know what Ben Simmons is capable of on D, but for him, that letter can also stand for another word: disappointment. Because at this point his lack of development is hard to process.

I say this not simply as a result of him attempting just four shots in the midst of the Sixers historic collapse against the Hawks, or given he missed 10 free throws in a game his team lost by three, but more so due to the fact that I believed in his ability to be a superstar.

Simmons or Joel Embiid was a legit conversation for a while and I was on team Simmons for a minute there.
